Is shipping always safe and sound?

Absolutely YES! We pay extra attention to use special secure wrapping materials.

  • We use the two box-system.
  • All the boxes are three layered shock reducing heat-isolation boxes.
  • Using the right fill in materials
  • The bigger porcelain pieces are fixed with a form keeping foam. Just like water uses the form of the cup, this foam keeps the form of the box and the porcelain.
  • The packing is only done by the professional colleagues of Herend manufactory.

And as an extra security, all the Herend porcelain packages of Herend Animals (F.A.
